I beleive Lorenzo is a speedy youngster. Not not in the way of the bat as he was hitting .260ish at BC. Interesting promotion.
I believe this is just a short term promotion to help fill a roster spot and to give him a taste of AAA. I saw him play in a couple of spring training games this year and came away impressed. He covers a lot of ground and showed a plus arm. His bat is still a question mark.

Interesting. Is he a younger version of Mel Stocker, or is there more upside?
Cain was a 17 round pick. He hit over .300 in Rookie and Low A ball, but has struggled a little since being promoted to High A. Good tools, just a matter of hitting.
